The masses of the two moons are determined to be 2M2M for Moon AA and MM for Moon BB . It is observed that the distance between

Moon BB and the planet is two times that of the distance between Moon AA and the planet. How does force exerted from the planet on Moon AA compare to the force exerted from the planet on Moon BB

Answer:

 F_A = 8 F_B

Explanation:

The force exerted by the planet on each moon is given by the law of universal gravitation

        F = G \frac{m M}{r^{2} }

where M is the mass of the planet, m the mass of the moon and r the distance between its centers

let's apply this equation to our case

Moon A

the distance between the planet and the moon A is r and the mass of the moon is 2m

        F_A = G \frac{2m M}{r^{2} }

Moon B

        F_B = G \frac{m M}{(2r)^{2} }

         F_B = G \frac{m M}{4 r^{2} }

the relationship between these forces is

         F_B / F_A = \frac{1}{2 \ 4 } = 1/8

         F_A = 8 F_B

        F_B = G \frac{m M}{4 r^{2} }

the relationship between these forces is

        F_B / F_A =  = 1/8

        F_A = 8 F_B

I WILL MARK YOU THE BRAINLIEST
mr Goodwill [35]

Explanation:

700N right

to get the net force

you gotta let one direction be the negative ( the smaller force)

so the total force towards the left is 100N ( 60 + 40= 100)

which is smaller than the right force which is 800 N so you let 100 N be negative

so without even calculating , you can know that it will be moving towards the right because right force > left force

your add both forces ( remember 100 N is negative)

so 800N + ( - 100N)

= 700N

towards the right

hope this helps

this is just one method that helped me understand

please mark it brainliest

A group of students prepare for a robotic competition and build a robot that can launch large spheres of mass M in the horizonta
jeyben [28]

Answer:

V_0

Explanation:

Given that, the range covered by the sphere, M, when released by the robot from the height, H, with the horizontal speed V_0 is D as shown in the figure.

The initial velocity in the vertical direction is 0.

Let g be the acceleration due to gravity, which always acts vertically downwards, so, it will not change the horizontal direction of the speed, i.e. V_0 will remain constant throughout the projectile motion.

So, if the time of flight is t, then

D=V_0t\; \cdots (i)

Now, from the equation of motion

s=ut+\frac 1 2 at^2\;\cdots (ii)

Where s is the displacement is the direction of force, u is the initial velocity, a is the constant acceleration and t is time.

Here, s= -H, u=0, and a=-g (negative sign is for taking the sigh convention positive in +y direction as shown in the figure.)

So, from equation (ii),

-H=0\times t +\frac 1 2 (-g)t^2

\Rightarrow H=\frac 1 2 gt^2

\Rightarrow t=\sqrt {\frac {2H}{g}}\;\cdots (iii)

Similarly, for the launched height 2H, the new time of flight, t', is

t'=\sqrt {\frac {4H}{g}}

From equation (iii), we have

\Rightarrow t'=\sqrt 2 t\;\cdots (iv)

Now, the spheres may be launched at speed V_0 or 2V_0.

Let, the distance covered in the x-direction be D_1 for V_0 and D_2 for 2V_0, we have

D_1=V_0t'

D_1=V_0\times \sqrt 2 t [from equation (iv)]

\Rightarrow D_1=\sqrt 2 D [from equation (i)]

\Rightarrow D_1=1.41 D (approximately)

This is in the 3 points range as given in the figure.

Similarly, D_2=2V_0t'

D_2=2V_0\times \sqrt 2 t [from equation (iv)]

\Rightarrow D_2=2\sqrt 2 D [from equation (i)]

\Rightarrow D_2=2.82 D (approximately)

This is out of range, so there is no point for 2V_0.

Hence, students must choose the speed V_0 to launch the sphere to get the maximum number of points.
